I have noticed using Turbo Pascal 5.5 that when you use the crt
procedure window to to change the screen borders, when you select a
region only 1 line high, it spits the dummy and scrolls the rest of the
screen.  I can find no mention of it in the manual.

demonstration code follows :

for loop := 0 to 3999 do
mem[$b000:loop] := random(255);  { $b800 for colour screens }
window(1,1,50,1);
writeln('Hi there');

any help appreciated.
